+
+opkbuild is a distribution build system – a set of tools for building
+software packages. From source packages it builds binary packages for
+use with the [opkg package manager][opkg].
+
+Currently one format of source package is supported by opkbuild:
+ProteanOS [Source Package Format 2.0][spf-2.0].
+
+opkbuild is similar in function to the [development library and utilities
+of dpkg][dpkg-dev] ([sources][dpkg-dev-git]), the Debian package manager.
